@Axel Captain Imsar stopped in front of his lieutenant and clasped his hands behind his back as she spoke to him. Apparently there were problems with the training techniques, but too big of an issue; there was always a rookie having issue with some portion of the teachings. What would've been more worrying was if there wasn't any problem and everyone was mastering everything at impressive rate. Now that would have been cause for alarm, and he would've shunpoed right over to investigate. However, he was detecting that there was something going on Ryuga wasn't telling him. It was hard to explain why, but something in her face was causing red flags to appear behind his eyes.
"I see." He said, rubbing his chin. There was a little bit of stubble. When was his last shave? "You're probably right, Ryuga." He nodded at her. "I think an appearance on my part would do well. Sometimes it can be hard to work for someone you never seen." He nodded his head in the direction of the division ten headquarters. "Come on." He started walking at a casual pace. "It's been too long since I've taken a stroll through...." The captain paused. "Actually, it's been awhile since I"ve taken a stroll of any kind. Isn't that silly? We're here to give our lives protecting this place at a moment's notice and I haven't taken any time to just take the place in. A nice walk should remedy that, right?"
Without waiting for a response he started walking in the direction of the hq. "So tell me, Rygua, how are things going with you? Are you getting on okay? The position doesn't seem too much does it? There's always help around if you need it." He smiled reassuringly. "There's so many people I occasionally see lounging around so if something you need help with turns up I'd consider it a personal favor if you let me know so there won't be so many of our squad standing around looking bored."
Sorry for my short post and for taking so long again. DX Been busy with a new job.
It's okay. Things happen. I'll try and get a reply up when I can, but work hasn't been easy for me. I just came off eight days straight because I took over for my dept manager. I had a day of yesterday but had to work again today. So, yep, sleepy lol.
Personality: Growth for growth's sake is the ideology of a cancer cell, not Jynmi Imsar. To Jynmi the purpose of all creation, and actions, from now till the end of time is to make existence a little easier, and safety as close to a sure thing as possible. He is a Unitarian, and measures something as successful or not based on how much more happiness it brings to the world. Due to the level of care Jynmi feels for just about everyone he seals himself off from the rest of the world as best he can so he can objectively step back and see the big picture, and let logic guide him instead of his heart.
Jynmi also believes in determinism and so sees everyone, no matter how good or evil as a reaction to the world around them. For that reason the guilty are not guilty because of what they've chosen, but because their continued existence would only bring more misfortune to themselves and others. It is with a heavy heart he vanquishes what must be vanquished. Despite his natural predisposition towards logical thinking Jynmi is actually very creative. He has to be, or he'd break down and go on a murder rampage, (which was what happened to the main character in the first novel he published novel). In his free time he likes to work on his writing. Normally he does short stories, but he's also done novels, plays and a bit of poetry too. He tried his hand at drawing and playing instruments, but they failed him, utterly. Other than writing, his favorite hobby is reading. His favorites are science fiction/ fantasy or anything humorous. He'll pretty much read anything. Though, he's a bit hesitant about romantic works, which is to say, he'll only open one if there's nothing else available, and his pen is out of ink.
Spirit Appearance: Athena is a tall woman, towering over Jynmi by 16 inches. Her hair is pitch black, razor straight, goes down to her ankles. Her eyes are golden color and her skin is the color of clean porcelain. She wears thick rimmed blue glasses, with a golden chain she wraps around the back of her head so they won't fall off. Her normal attire consist of a long flowing white robe with her left shoulder bare.
Inner world: Jynmi's inner world consist of white marble ruins, surrounded by high mountain peaks that disappear into dark grey clouds. Despite the clouds that surround the ruins, a beam of sunlight cuts through at the sky's apex, streaming down over the only structure standing intact inside the valley, which is an auditoria with a tiny stage, surrounded by thousands of empty seats.
Sealed appearance: Athena's sealed state takes the form of a wakizashi with a silver guard, and black wrapping along the handle.
Shikai appearance: Athena's release state takes of a white orb. The orb is about 12 inches in diameter, and looks as if it's made out of porcelain. With the exception of a simple drawing of a black eye, the orb is featureless.
Bankai appearance: In her bankai form Athena takes the form of an infinity symbo (Sideways 8) tattooed on Jynmi's forehead. Half the symbol is white, and the other half is black. In the center of the black part of the eight is the white eye from the shikai, and vice versa for the white part. In addition to the infinite mark on Jynmi's forehead his eyes turn deep blue, and become bigger, almost owl like with deep dark bags appearing beneath them. His ears become pointed like an elf's.
Shikai special ability: Athena's shikai has the ability to manipulate its own existence.
Shikai skills: 1.. Kierkegaard- In her shikai state, Athena can phase in and out of existence at will. While "Existing" whatever shape she's in is porcelain white with a black eye painted at the sphere's center. Whenever she is in a state of none-being-The sphere is black with a white eye painted on the sphere's center. If in a state of non-being Athena cannot phase back in if there's a solid object like stone or a person in the area she wishes to enter at, but she can phase into looser materials like air, water, and sand. Upon entering non-being, the lack of matter in the area causes a powerful vacuum. Upon entering existence there's an explosion. The size of explosion/implosion is dependent on Athena's surface area and shape at the time. 2. Nietzsche- In her released state, Athena can expand or contract her size, altering her volume and surface area at will. Note, this ability does not change her density, and she becomes softer the further her form is stretched. 3. Heidegger- Athena's release state is controlled telepathically by Jynmi, and she is capable of moving independently of him, being able to hover, and move at shunpo-like speeds, up to a 250 m range of him. 4. Jaspers- While released, Athena has the ability to change her shape at will, manipulate her physical form into virtually any object so long as it's a single piece. 5. Camus-??? 6. Sartre-???
Bankai Skills:
1. Socrates- The black half of infinity disappears from Jynmi's forehead and reappears on his right palm. He then presses his hand into the forehead of someone. Both circles glow violently, and the two figures stay still, apparently suspended in the moment, the only movement between them being the parts of the infinite symbols on their foreheads, flickering with light. The true nature of Socrates is two join the minds of two separate to either communicate or due battle. With this ability Jynmi and whoever he's involved with find themselves in a completely pitch black area, floating. Communication here is much better than that of the outside world since words do not get tongue tied, and images or sensations can be exchanged. Battle during Socrates is unlike anything else. In this world, the two combatants have nearly infinite power, able to create images and sensations, which they can use to attack their opponents. Note: Within Socrates, physical attributes like spiritual pressure, physical strength, speed, natural defense. etc, etc, are ignored. The power behind each attack is based on that combatant's will to cause the other harm. Within Socrates combatant's feel pain as they would in the normal world, but in the end they don't die because of damage or pain, but because of an inability to hold images of themselves together. Although the possible methods for attack are nearly infinite, battling in Socrates does have rules. No consecutive attacks maybe be of the same type(Earth, Wind, Water, Fire, Dark, and light) and during a six attack cycle each type must be used. If someone effected by this ability tries using two attacks in a row that are the same type, they'll find themselves damaged instead. Failing to use all six types in a cycle will result in two turns were they'll be unable to form images(they can still move normally though). Upon reaching victory, the victor may choose one of three options: * killing their opponent by causing the Section of eight on their forehead to detonate with a massive implosion. * Disabling their opponent by forcing them into a coma-like state for a pre-set amount of time * Forcing their way deeper into their opponents mind to forcefully retrieve data.
In the event of a draw both combatants are forced into coma-like states, unable to awaken for at least four days.
2. Plato- 3. Aristotle- The white half of the infinite sign on Jynmi's head disappears and then reappears on his left palm. He then presses the palm onto something. A large cube area appears around him, with its central point being the white half of the infinite square. Jynmi can manipulate the size of Aristotle, able to expand it up to a maximum of 500 meters. Within this boxed area Jynmi is able to change the physical laws and properties which guide the natural world. As powerful as this ability sounds, it does not grant him absolute authority over the world around him. He cannot change more than three aspects within the space of Plato at any given time, and once a change has been activated, it must remain active for at least six post before he can change it. He must also know the words of the things he would like to change, as Athena is not a mind reader in this state, and descriptions of effects and properties are meaningless. However, he's able to deactivate a change, after the amount of post have past, at will. He's also limited to what he can actually effect, as opposed to what only exist because of beliefs, or categorization. What this means is he can effect laws, phenomena, properties, things that are without needing a mind to recognize them for what they are. On the other hand he cannot target non-absolute characteristics(things which only exist because of what a mind recognizes). For example, he can say that the density for a certain type of steel is several times higher than what it is, but he cannot say that the sword of his opponent is too heavy for him to swing around, because the sword is a particular as opposed to something absolute. Probably the biggest weakness this bankai is Jynmi's inability to choose the actual effects of his words. He can pick what he tweaks but not what will happen. So he usually keeps his statements simple. Lastly Jynmi is affected by the changes in the universe just like anything else within the space. 4. Epicurus- 5. Zeno-???
The meeting hadn't gone as smoothly as Jynmi expected. In fact, other than the head captain's decision of taking aside a few select individuals for the special assignment, there hadn't been a point to it all. Once the head captain had his say everyone just sort of divided up into their own little pairings and groups. The only real point shared with the rest involved the hollows and that wasn't news to anyone. It was agitating to say the least, but captain Imsar decided not to let it bother him, or at least he decided to try not to let it get the better of him. Rationalizing things usually helped. He'd known the head for some time now, and the man had never been one to do things without a reason. Of course, this knowledge didn't change how pointless what was going on seemed to him. Jynmi gritted his teeth, and paused before making his exit in an attempt to figure out who would be the best person to know what was going on. Usually members of the 6th or 12th divisions had a good idea of what was going on. Maybe, that would be the way to go about it?
As he stepped out into the bright day captain Malmshode's hands were clasped behind his back, as they tended to do whenever he was deep in thought. It was tempting to use shunpo and reach his division hq as quickly as possible, but currently he couldn't see the point. There wasn't much going on at the moment, and he did his best thing during a normal walk. "So, a walk it shall be" he said to nobody in particular. He got a few steps away from the barracks when the sight of his second in command caught his eyes.
"Oh!" He called, walking over towards to the young woman. "Ryuga, funny seeing you here. Is everything alright back at the hq?"
@malmshodesWell, you could probably skip over all the city building information. But you'll probably have to read quite a bit of the character creation info in order to know what you're doing. Sorry that there're no quick short cuts.
No worries! Actually, that's where I decided to start. So its a good thing to know my instincts aren't too far off track ^.^ Though, I probably won't be able to get a CS up till at least tomorrow as I'm learning all this for the first time! ^.^; Still, really excited about the rp. So its the books for me :)
Hi! I'm really looking forward to doing this, but to be honest I've never actually done something like this. I'm looking at the link to the manual as we speak, but there's so much. Could someone maybe give me a hint on where to start? Please?

Could I get abilities from those shows like the sharingan or banaki?
First, I'm not the GM, or a CoGM. I'm just answering based on what I got from the Gm's previous posts. So, I could be wrong. Either way, I think either of those abilities would be doable, but the bankai won't be right away since the GM wants our characters to start out with really basic abilities. So if you'd really want to have a character with a bankai then your character would probably have to start out with something lower. I think he would allow the sharigan at its most basic.
Name: Jynmi Imsar . Age: 17 Appearance:Jynmi used to stand 5'11, with a round physique. His eyes were light brown and his hair was black, curly, long, and usually done up in a pony tail, or in his case a rabbit tail. His skin was medium bronze. Now, however he's pale as an albino with violet colored eyes and short paper white hair. He's also lost a lot of height, about 7 inches worth and he's gained a wiry physique.
History: Jynmi grew up the city of El paso Tx. He was born there, went to school there, got a job there, and as far as he knows died some kind of horrible violent death there. It's hard to tell. All he remembered his sitting on the john and then a big piece of metal with lights broke through the wall.
Personality: Jynmi is a classic INFJ personality type. That is to say, he has the potential to get along with lots of people, thanks to a combination of strong intuition, and high level of empathy, but that being said he has a limit to the amount of social interactions he can stand before he becomes drained and needs alone time. He's an avid reader, devouring a little bit of everything, and enjoys writing. Actually, before whatever happened to him happened he had hopes of one day making it as a novelist. His loves animals, and tends to put them over human beings. He's also extremely liberal.
Rank: --- Title: ---
Abilities: Jynmi can form a white aura which surrounds him like a suit of soft armor. He can manipulate the aura to increase defense in specific areas. (The aura isn't actually his spirit, but the manifestation of a parasitic spiritual being which has latched onto his soul and exist there in a symbiotic relationship. Think of it as a cross between the symbiotes(Marvel universe) and the Asauchi(Bleach) which will evolve as it becomes closer to Jynmi.
Skills: Sorry, friend. At present, you don't know much.
Inventory: Nothing, for now.
